the email address had about 40 emails with people asking to come next time following seeing the 202mph achieved on the website.

I didnt even know it has been updated, nice work Rico

[Viper]

the top 30 times or so, over the 10 VMAX's would be cool if you still have records going back

[rico]

Graham.J actually did the update as I've been snowed under at work.

[StuB]

What about a database listing with highest speeds recorded by model?

[craigw]

thanks Graham too then!

Top speeds from memory (may be wrong!!) :

1. 202 mph GuyR Ruf GT2
2. 201 mph Henry in Guys car
2.5 200mph Tiff Needell Lotus Esprit (NOT!!)
3. 198 mph Nadine Dodge Viper
4. 196 mph Gman Ultima
5. 196 mph Adam Ruf CTR
6. 195 mph Henry Porsche GT2
7. 192 mph Daz 996TT X50
8. 192 mph Maff Mercedes CL65
9. 192 Rob DMS 996TT
10 190 mph Derestrictor 993TT

Largely from memory, I may be wrong & am sure you will correct me

I think the Ruf CTRs best is 195mph from memory.

I know Henry has not broken into the 190s in his GT2, I think his best is 187 or 188mph, as his car is only mildly tuned from stock. He was the first to exceed 200mph though (in my car)

Interesting to read the stats although a bit misleading due to the figures being achieved in different conditions/speed trap locations etc. Eg my top VMAXs have ranged from verified 179 to 192 depending on the day (speedo has consistently overread by about 4mph). Same car, never modified etc. Just galancing at the above figures people could make the mistake of thinking the X50 was as fast as Maff's CL65 and Rob's highly tuned DMS 996TT. Or faster than Derestrictor's modified 993TT.

That's very modest of you Daz, but the stats still stand... you have still officially gone faster than DeR's beetle at Bruntingthorpe. He will be chasing a 193 next time

[adamt]

I think i have done a 192mph in the r turbo in one of the earlier Vmaxs in 04...not 100% though

all the best

Daz, is your car a standard x50?

Totally standard except for an alloy gearshift linkage replacing the crappy plastic original bit.

192 from a standard car is a absolutely awesome speed!

[dazren]

We had a decent tail wind and not a lot of braking area on the day concerned.

No problem mate, I'll have to sort out gallery for VMAX 9 soon. I'll have a look through all the pics and knock something up in the next week

StuB said:

Good idea, I'll have to look into it

Craig if you have the results of the top 10 or 20 speeds could you email me them and I'll put them up on the site?

Cheers,

Graham

[craigw]

thanks mate, will see what I can do.

Cheers. I've put up the galleries for 9 and now 10. Also put up the VMAX 9 results table so we're all up to date now.

I don't suppose this is Henry from 911virgin is it?
